The Los Angeles Lakers could make multiple additions in free agency to address the team's need at center. "I think they might sign even two centers before this week is up," ESPN's Brian Windhorst said during a Monday appearance on SportsCenter.

The Lakers' trade for Doncic sacrificed their All-Star center, Anthony Davis, and his two-way production in the frontcourt. After a deal for Charlotte Hornets center Mark Williams was reversed at the trade deadline due to a failed physical, Los Angeles is undoubtedly in the market for an impactful center. And Ayton makes a lot of sense.

According to NBA insider Jake Fischer, rival teams are expecting to see the Lakers pursue Lopez when free agency opens. Even if Los Angeles does not sign him, there is a very good chance that he will sign somewhere other than with the Milwaukee Bucks, where he has played the last seven years.

Angel Reese's brother, Julian Reese, took a step towards becoming a professional basketball player earlier this week when he signed a Summer League contract with the Los Angeles Lakers.

Former Maryland forward Julian Reese joined the Los Angeles Lakers as an undrafted free agent, earning congratulations from his sister, Angel Reese, after stellar college basketball career.
